Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Overheating the adductors makes them tough, so it's crucial to stick to the timing: 2 minutes on high heat, plus 1 minute off the heat with residual steam.
  • The thin membrane around the adductors can cause a chewy texture, so be sure to slice it off with a knife before cooking.
  • Seasoning the blanching water with a little salt helps the bok choy retain its vibrant color and adds a subtle base flavor, making it even more delicious.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a truly tender and luxurious adductor dish, unlike what you'd find at a grilled shellfish restaurant.
  • Those who want to quickly prepare a Chinese restaurant-style appetizer at home.
  • Those looking for a seafood recipe that impresses both visually and in flavor, perfect for entertaining guests.
